Jessica MacDonald

Jessica is an interdisciplinary creative professional working in film, visual arts, music, and performance. A graduate of NSCAD University, Jessica maintains a diverse creative practice across disciplines and industries, striving to overlap and intertwine disparate areas of work. 

Her work in the film industry began as a one-person Art Department on low budget shorts, and has progressed into working in various roles within the Art Department on larger productions. Jessica thrives working on films with stylized, rich world-building, using her thorough attention to detail and artistic eye to deliver a cohesive, carefully considered visual journey through the world of the script as it migrates to the screen.
